Qrek 9100 keyboared US to SE in BRIGHTPHONE - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development

I have installed S.I.V.'s BRIGHTPHONE rom (great thing btw, thanks!) and enjoy using it. One problem though is that I get the US keyboard instead of the Swedish 041D, which it originally came with. Typing with it is almost impossible finding the letters ä,ö,ü,å. I tried to find the Registry or file .....\keybd\Locale to change keyID, without success. Can not find Total Command inmy wizard either. Anyone who can help? All suggestions are welcome and highly appreciated!
Thanks!

There is a wiki page that deals specificaly with that. I have not had to change the keyboard locale... so I am not too familiar with that. Also BRIGHTPHONE does not have additional language file in it.
That rom is so old and so slow. you need to upgrade anyway.

Thanks siv
Ok, I just liked the functions and look but consider to upgrade to ANGEL. Thanks for your reply and THANKS for all your work with the ROMs. Good work.

Install the following link provided, it worked for me running stock HTC ROM WM6.1 Build 20764. Just to let you know this is the Offcial Chinese support from HTC
here you go

Note* after install reboot the device and u should find it working
Cheers

My method is, first, install the necessary font. To do this, install CE-Star for WM5/6 trial version 2.8 R3c. It can support both Chinese and Japanese display. Chinese input will be disabled after trial expires but Chinese and Japanese display function never expires It needs to be installed through ActiveSync only.
For Chinese input, there are a few options, like 点讯http://www.dayhand.com/ or Sogou for WM. They are free software.

This site rocks...that cab worked perfectly on my touch pro (Energy ROM English)...thanks!
Chinese reading
I am using already some time the following CAB which installs Chinese Fonts on my HTC.
sunglobe.cab
fontpatch.cab
Tested it with stock, EnergyROM and TAEL rom, no problems.
Google for it, download it and there you go.
How about input?
Which one do you all recommend?
I use font support from Ricky mentioned above and IME only from 小熊工作室 here
http://www.studiokuma.com/wm/?section=mui
I'm using what that have stated in post #4 to enable Chinese characters viewing.
For input, I'm using ZTA4.
I'm able to send out Chinese characters sms'es.
But all the receiver receives is "???????" only, instead of desired Chinese characters.
This has been tested on Sony Ericsson phone as receiver phone.
What's the problem here?
The ROM I'm using is stated under my sig.
It worked on last version of TAEL ROM, but not this.
Hi all
I am glad that there is a post regarding Chinese display and input on English rom finally. I am a new comer for Windows mobile world. I managed to unlock my Touch Pro and able to install cooked rom. However, I always has problem for Chinese support.
Personally, I would like to stick with TEAL rom. However, after I installed the IME from 小熊工作室 on latest TEAL rom, the screen had been frozen.
Is it possible if anyone of you could share the experiences for installing Chinese support with TEAL rom? A step by step guide would be wonderful. Actually, I just need my Touch Pro with Traditional Chinese display and hand-writing input feature.
Sorry, I understand that it is beginner question. I did try to find the solution by myself, but obviously, I am not smart enough to get the job done. Please give me a hand.
Thank you very much in advance.

Did you install the full Chinese support from 小熊工作室 or IME only? The cab for IME only should have size only 1.6MB. I think I tried his font support on WM6.5 a while ago but didn't work out (can't remember what went wrong). I looked around and Ricky got the most beautiful font and fixed the Chinese word-wrap problem in Viigo when reading RSS news, so I stick with it.
Then I looked around for input support. All the IMEs I used before don't work under WM6.5 except CE-star, but it requires its own font support. Finally I re-visit 小熊工作室 and tried the IME-only cab, and it works.
Right now this is my favorite combination under WM6.5. I install Ricky's font support through UC during re-flashing, and install 小熊 IME afterward because the installation asks if I want to retain the word suggestion function in English IME. If you install it through UC, the customization will hang at the point the installation asking for your choice.
I'm not 100% positive, but I thought I tried this combination under TEAL's earlier build with no problem. I could be wrong...
Good luck.
Personally i m using 'najera--PlumSIP Pro VGA V6.1.0008.cab' for ime and 'SamauChinesePlus20080310.cab' for chinese support
They both worked perfectly, with any rom i tried. I've been using them since I got my touch pro in march this year.
U can use any chinese support package. as long as it works, there will be no difference, but I strongly recommend using this ime. It is so perfect with a nice skin.
According to 小熊工作室's site. The current version do not support WM 6.5.
Did anyone managed to use the above chinese input on WM 6.5?
Thanks!
Ooo.. so there's an IME-only cab? I can't seem to find it.
Can you post the link over here? Thanks in advance!

I am using his msje-ime cab. I only install 全螢幕輸入 and 注音 ime and it works fine on my Fuze with Energy ROM Akeo. (I think 注音 is required for 全螢幕輸入). It had been not working for couple of builds before, but it's working perfectly now. I haven't tried NRGZ28's new Energy ROM Leo but I think it will still work.
I am using Leies CE-Star Big5 System and IME Leies CE-Star Jianyi which also works perfectly on my Touch Pro with Energy ROM 6.5.
I like it that this IME support the Chinese JianYi (or call 速成) on the hardware keyboard
I got a suggestion over here.
Can the recommended working fonts & inputs being uploaded again directly by the one who suggested instead of asking people around here to google around?
Mediafire, RapidShare, and whatever you can think of.

I've been using 小熊工作室 IME only on the RRE WM6.5 ROMs, now the rRedux WM6.5 ROMs fine. But I'm using Ricky's font support because of the better looking font and working Chinese word-wrap in Viigo.

You have to check all checkboxes on the page, and uncheck the last checkbox again, then all the files will appear as a result of the javascript. The IME I'm using is the imeonly.cab.

Bing compatibility

Hi -- I just downloaded the new version of Bing. I'm running it on an HTC Sedna with Windows Mobile 6.1. It _seems_ to work fine on my phone. Fine except for the fact that within a minute or two I get a message which says "Your device has been identified as not supported for this application," after which Bing shuts down. Any ideas on how to get around this? This software is supposed to work with WM 6.1 phones and it seems to do so until Microsoft pulls the plug!
Thanks, Alan
Are you using a cooked ROM?
I suggest you to install it on a emulator and see what happens
Thanks -- no, I'm using the standard HTC ROM. (I don't even think there ARE any cooked ROMS for this phone!)
I've never dealt with an emulator, so I don't immediately know how to do what you're suggesting, nor do I have a sense of how time consuming that would be. But would it be worthwhile to go down that road? If Bing worked on the emulator, how would that help me figure out how to make it work on my phone?
I wonder if there's a way to tell Bing that I've got a different kind of phone. I suspect that would fix this. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks!
Alan
Ok, but you can share where you got the installation file(just to do a test here).
Thanks.
Yes -- I got it from here:
http://static.appserver.m.bing.net/binaries/winmo/v1/Bing.CAB
I was running the previous version of Bing, and the program sent me to this link to get the updated version (which then gives me errors about my phone not being supported).
Thanks, Alan
Thanks very much, I'm going to test it.
Wait some time...
That's terrific! Thanks so much!

Bing...
Works OK on Diamond 1 with stock 6.1 ROM. Not sure if I like it or not..
Right -- I know it works on other WM 6.1 phones. I'm wondering how to run it on mine. I suspect the solution is to make Bing think I'm using a Diamond or some other phone it knows it's compatible with. Anyone know how to do this? What does it use to figure out what sort of phone I have?
Thanks, Alan
It's working on my emulator.
Have you already tried another version?
I don't really understand what you're asking ... I've run this program on two different (stock WM 6.1) HTC P6500s with the same result: it works fine a little while, then I get a message that I'm not using a supported device and the software shuts down. I don't know how running this on an emulator would help me fix the problem. I know that the software works fine on Diamonds, Touch Pro2, Diamond 2, and other officially-supported WM 6.1 phones. And I know that the software detects my P6500 as not supported and therefore will stop working after a while.
SO: the question is how to get Bing to believe I'm using a phone that it considers supported? I've tried replacing P6500 with T5353 (Touch Diamond 2) in a couple of places in the registry:
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ActiveSync\DeviceModel
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\User Agent\Post Platform
But it doesn't seem to make a difference ....
Does anyone have any other ideas about how I might fix this?
Thanks,
Alan
I think that change these registrys:
Code:
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ActiveSync\ DeviceModel
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Internet Settings\User Agent\Post Platform
Isn't a very good thing, because this can turn your device unstable.
PS: I'm going to Google for some solution.
I need one thing to solve your problem as fast as I can. It's the error code.
Thanks.
Thanks so much ... Yeah, I didn't leave those registry changes on long: just a quick experiment.
OK, forgive my ignorance, but how can I find out the error code to tell you?
Thank you!
Alan
Error in images, this is after being cooked in, works for a few min but than get a compatibility error and shuts down
Interesting -- that's a different error than the one I get, though mine generally comes up around the same time. Mine says "Your device has been identified as not supported for this application."
How do we find error codes for these?
Alan
It seems they have the same root, this has been cooked in I was hoping to go "around" the not supportive error that you get with the cab file.
Since I took it out of my build I think the best way will be to run it cooked in an emulator to get it.
Huh, interesting...
I'm going to take a better look on this.

How do I restore the Block Recognizer

Hi all!
I have just updated my TP2 (Verizon) to WinMo 6.5. The Block Recognizer has disappeared. Verizon's response is a resounding "oh well".
I understand there is a registry entry that will restore the feature. Anyone have any ideas or solutions?
I am desprate, my fingers are too big for the on screen keyboards.
Thanks for advance.
Uncle Eric
Im guessing you also dont like using the slide out keyboard (which i am happily using to type this). I dont know the reg edit for the block recognizer but i can suggest 2 soft input panels u can try. One is Spb keyboard (not free) which has a much bigger onscreen keyboard. There is also my favorite solution for onscreen keyboards....Swype. Its free because it was pulled from the rom to another HTC phone and is compatible with the tp2. If u want the cab let me know. Do a google search to find out how it works. I believe it is a much more efficient way of typing onscreen. If ur not interested in the cab then maybe someone else can throw their hat in as far as the reg edit. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the response.
What I really want is the feature in WinMo 6.1 restored in 6.5. The Verizon Imagio has this feature, I guess, because of the lack of a keyboard.
I like the "Palm Grafitti" type input, I have been using it since the first Palm device shipped, before WinMo or Windows CE even existed.
I am told there is a registry entry to fix all this, maybe I need to find an Imagio and look at its registry. I do know it is not just a 1 or 0, its one of those long {xxx-xxx} type entries.
Thanks again for the suggestion, but it does not work for me.

htc has a hotfix for this "HotFix RHo09076". it is on the htc site. it reinstalls the block recognizer and transcriber.

This hotfix does NOT work for the Verizon phones; I'm unsure for others.
I do know that all verizon did was disable the registry value for a few of the SIP(block recognizer and transcriber) and left all the dependent files alone(dll's, registry entries, etc.).
If you're comfortable with a regedit then here's what you'll need to do:
Letter Recognizer
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{42429690-ae04-11d0-a4f8-00aa00a749b9}\IsSipInputMethod
"Default"="1" – Enabled
"Default"="0" - Disabled
Block Recognizer
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{42429691-ae04-11d0-a4f8-00aa00a749b9}\IsSipInputMethod
"Default"="1" – Enabled
"Default"="0" – Disabled
Transcriber
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F0034DD0-2AD4-11d1-9CB0-E84BE8000000}\IsSipInputMethod
"Default"="1" – Enabled
"Default"="0" - Disabled
it worked for my verizon tp2 with update to stock wm6.5
I found the registry entries and made the changes.
Unfortunately, this does not make the block recoginizer selectable.
On the menu that selects the keyboard, etc, there should be a selection "other input methods", after selecting that menu, the menu to select "block recognizer " appears.
I suspect there is another step here to add the "other input methods" or "block recognizer" to the selection menu.
The menu is located by pressing the up carret that is next to the keyboard icon.
Thanks
Uncle Eric
I found the Block/Letter Recognizer hotfix. It was on HTC's UK site. Can't post links yet, but it's at:
htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=822&news_id=435
Problem was, when I went to install it I got an "unsupported device" error. So I edited the XML and made a CAB.
Hope this helps people out, I spent the better part of an afternoon looking for a fix and couldn't find one.

ScottSNX - you are a LIFESAVER... I thought I was losing my mind - because I know when I was in the verizon store I saw the block recognizer on the htc imagio and a friend of mine had the touch pro2 (but maybe windows 6.1) and it was there - which is one of the reasons I bought this device. I was pulling my hair out trying to find a solutions - thank God I came upon your post... This definitely works.. it literally took me 1 minute to download and it installed and worked in 30 seconds. I can't thank you enough!!!
Thanks ScottSNX

Only, now, I need someone to walk this old man through how to install it.
I've downloaded it to my PC and tried to copy it to the phone. Won't copy.
I've downloaded it using my phone but when I open the folder I saved to, no file.
I'm sure it's simple but if you don't know how, it's frustrating.
Thanks again.
Works great
I installed and it works great. Now I can take notes again. Was a little rough using the board. Thanks for all the effort

Bump!
(Version MR1 just installed)
Have you connected your phone and computer (USB) using Microsoft ActiveSync? Find in the ActiveSync window the Explore utility...should be one of three selections available in a toolbar just below the standard File/Edit/View... toolbar.
Select Explore...and you'll see a typical Explorer view of your phone and its files.
Now, you can drag and drop the .cab file, for example.
Go now to your phone file explorer, find the .cab file...and run it. Voila!
My only question now, is -- I seem to recall that there was an on-screen keyboard with smaller keys than any of the keyboards now available. Is this another "enhancement" in 6.5.
Many thanks to Scott...on behalf of all of us (both of us? -- tee hee) who use the stylus for something other than just tapping. Letter and block recognition is awesome. If you haven't tried it in a while, I urge you to do so...it has come a long way!

[REQUEST] HTC_CIME MOD for N1

Hi there,
I am user of N1, and I am seeking for a workable HTC_CIME that works on this device. As i see, there were already a mod on HTC_IME English KB. However, I am a Chinese user and seeking for a Chinese one for daily use.
I would be grateful if anybody may help. Really thanks!!
I hacked one together really quickly but it seems seriously buggy. You could give it a try if you want tho.
What's not working at all is the English (QWERTY) input. It doesn't draw itself correctly. I have no idea on how to fix that. Switching to Chinese input seems to work. I looked up a Chinese sign and entered it successfully. I have no idea what I wrote since I don't understand the language...
Maybe its unusable, maybe not. It's at least something

thanks man, works fine. apart from the following problems:
1)When switching to landscape mode the IME crashes.
2)The list of alternative/(possible)following characters is a bit misplaced so you can not see them all or click the arrow to show more (happens when using kbd/phonepad too)
when using the qwerty kbd or phonepad:
3)sometimes the key turns black afterit was pressed, sometimes the whole input area turns black, even tho the keyboard is still there and accepts new input.
4)ZhuYin/CangJie/PinYin/Stroke input do not work at all.
maybe you can tell us what exactly you did so far, so other people can fix the remaining issues ?
i think top prio should be issue 1) and 2)
apart from that the handwriting works quite well

another hdpi HTC_CIME
i found this on google, tweeted by @maxisma on Twitter.
still can't get it working, seems it has memory allocation problem in the dalvik vm?
I've noticed the new Modaco ROM by paulobrien has incorporated the new HTC_CIME for Chinese input. Anyone knows where we can get standalone version of the HTC_CIME for other ROMs? Thanks.

Swype from 2.07 rom required

HI can anyone tell me where to get new skype from 2.07 rom ???
thanks in advance.
You won't find anyone with it here. The best solution is to simply flash to a ROM that has it.
I have so much data on phone can't backup all of it so dont wana change rom for time being........
Im not sure where to grab the version of swype that has been extracted from the 2.07 rom... i am trying to find it myself!
The swype cab created from the version ripped from the Samsung Omnia 2 is all over the web though... google should bring up a couple of places to download it from.
Does anyone know of any differences between the two versions?

You will have to search in the underground... Extracting the software and offering it as a cab is clearly not wanted by the creators and owners of the software. Offering links to warez is completely against xda rules.
The difference between the 2 might be some more language support, and that the HD2 version was made for HD2, as simple as that. I think it still might be an option to flash a ROM which carries it on board - or, at least, as long as this is tolerated.
Maybe in the close future, HTC will bring another ROM update which offers this great piece of software. Or, as stated otherwise, Swype might decide to make a retail offer at some time. If they do at a decent price, I believe they could do great business - as seen with other products, at unreasonably high prices, you won´t sell big, but at fair pricing, you can succeed.
I cannot find the new version anywhere!
If anyone has a link or would like to email it to me that would be very much appreciated!!

I had the same thing, only installed yesterday so didn't do much checking of the phone. Quite a few problem were caused by the T-Mobile version . Data connection is screwed and all email passwords needed to be reset and my Wifi password are also gone lol. Did some reading online as well and quite a few other people have experienced the same problems, some have even had to HARD RESET to get their phones working correctly, fortunetly for me just uninstalling the CAB and giving the phone a few minutes resolved my Data connection issues , will put back on the Omnia version and leave it at that for the time being.
So I advice using the newest version of Swype with EXTREME caution!!!!
I tried it after much hesitation... Had to do a new setup for all email accounts, data connection and wifi connection. But it seems to be fine now, I'll see in a few days if it stays like that.
I'm using SWYPE WVGA 3.9.10.10.5032 on my HD2 without any problems.

Had the same, but all I had to do was re-enter the passwords (and mail servers for gmail) and re-run the connection setup wizard. Now I'm fine and dandy and the software is nothing short of awesome... Supports Italian, German, French, English and Spanish; I tested all languages and it works fine
I'd say it is a crucial addition to the HD2, as I use it every day, and it makes my text input much less of a chore. It is particularly useful because of its multi-language support. I've never had any problems like those described, thankfully.
have you guys done any soft resets since the initial reset after installation? I also found the keyboard became slow to start after I played with the setting. the omnia 2 version is working better for me and with the htc skin looks awesome.

I can't believe no one else posted this...
If you overwrite the ModelID with the file provided, you are effectively telling your phone that you are now....a...tmobile hd2.
The swype keyboard has protection in it...only a tmobile hd2 will work with it.
hence why you need the modelid
now here is the kicker...
Say sprint - you run sprint tv. get an error. wanna know why? sprint asks "what phone" and your phone replies "tmobilehd2.
Same thing with prl updates...
I think you get the point...
when you overwrite the modelid, all exchange accounts - gone (sorta). Your 4 digit pin become a lockout - no pin will unlock it.
in short, bad things happen.
And this is why you always provision your phone before you set it up. part of provisioning is setting the modelid...
which is why people on mighty that forgot to provision before seting up exchange need that fix e-mails cab...
any questions?

@leepriestenator, if I don't use any provider software, I can install swype without any problem right ?
leepriestenator is correct. Thanks. As our phones are all unlock where we are, the problem is just resetting the mobile provider. It is working fine on my phone, though the phone identity is now T-mobile_Leo.
Having said that, it is a much improved version over the one in Samsung.
